So you probably wanna ask some questions before joining. I understand that and will be happy to assist you in anyway. To make it easier for us and you, this thread will provide the answers you seek.
Can we apply for canon characters?
No, this site is for purely fan made characters. Canons are used as background and for the plot in some areas. The reason for not using canons is because well, we feel people would fight over certain characters or will be dissatisfied with them.
Do we need multiple accounts to apply for different characters?
Nope, you only need one account, you can apply up to 3 characters. Once we know you can handle 3 characters, you can apply for more if you like. The maximum limit that I think would be 5 just so it won't be a gigantic mess.
What's different about this place?
Well in my opinion, this site is to bring your imagination to life. While the staff creates plots and you play it. Here you can come up with a plot and have it voted on to see if we'll do it. This site is basically the members have a say. Democracy some what, we as the staff make sure to that it runs smoothly and to avoid drama. In my opinion, this is inspiring because it makes you want to beat the person in plot ideas.
How are conflicts solved?
There will be conflicts. Everyone controls their own characters, and inevitably at some point some characters/players will have conflicting interests. There are two ways to reconcile these situations: either publicly between the characters, or privately between the players. In the former case the players just react to each others posts and try to stick with the rules and common sense. Personally, I think this is more fun because you never know the outcome of your actions, and you are reading the story as much as you're writing it. On the other hand, in some cases it is justified that you wish something to happen, but you need to rely on other players to help you: thus, you can PM the player in question and try to negotiate how to resolve a situation ("Can you not notice when Vibro deploys a drone? I have some ideas I want to try.") Many big one-on-one battles are solves like this in the past, and basically the "big stories" we're doing are based on all of us collectively accepting that some stuff will happen.
Overall this place is for you if you want to show your imagination. If you have any more questions, please post them here and I'll gladly answer them.
